This is another of my images from the Apparitions project submission package. This one is kind of a weird image, which is exactly why I chose it. This old doll, the hatchet and the saddle shoes were all artifacts in an old museum. But the museum was abandoned, for about 40 years, and towards the end, when the site was no longer monitored and maintained, many of the buildings and artivacts were looted. The building that housed these items has since been moved to another location.
Arturo and I have now sent out our submission package to eight galleries... since early February. We have about four or five more, that have upcoming deadlines through the next several months. We are considering applying for another Arts Grant to fund travelling of the show to galleries that are further away. With each acceptance comes the expectation that the prints will be delivered to the gallery, the artists will attend the opening, and the prints will be picked up after the show. Many galleries pay an exhibition fee which partially covers these costs. But if the venue is further away, then the costs exceed the fee.
